Here is the how I did it:

Does anybody see an error in this?

I'm not familiar with a crontab format that allows you to specify a username as you have there. If you'd like the process to run as root, login as root, do a crontab -e, and paste this in there: 14 8 * * * /usr/local/bin/php /home/www/cron/statistics.php see if that works for you.

Thank you that solved the problem Merlin
